[Daryl glances at Rick, shifts his weight to the other foot, squeezes once at the bow strap. Looking down at Carl, his hair hanging all in his face, he gets through the last of his fidgeting by turning his chin a little toward his shoulder so his gaze becomes more comfortably sidelong. By now the pause alone will have said enough, but he can't leave them hanging:] Walker bit him. We tried to stop it, like with Hershel, but...
